206* vs England (Ahmedabad, 2012):
Pujara announced himself on the big stage with a double hundred in just his sixth Test. His marathon innings allowed India to declare at 521-8 in the first innings. Then, in the second innings, Pujara was unbeaten again on 41 as India chased down the 77-run target with ease.   

153 vs South Africa (Johannesburg, 2013):
Against a formidable SA bowling line-up, Pujara stood tall in India’s second innings alongside Virat Kohli (119 and 96). Pujara’s 270-ball knock was one of his 
most fluent and best overseas efforts and put India in a commanding position, before SA ensured the match ended in a draw.

123 vs Australia (Adelaide, 2018):
The No. 3 batter started the series with a bang, scoring almost half of India’s 250 runs in the first innings. He went on to score 71 in the second and was named player of the match as India claimed a famous win by 31 runs.
